My wife watches this all the time- she’ll be happy!

Just curious - is there any reason there is no Linux support - is that coming? I haven’t tried it yet at home on my Ubuntu box.

Jim,

Linux is not currently supported by the video technology we are using to deliver such high quality content (the original Flash version did). Last time I checked, there were no near future plans to support Linux due to the number of our users running Linux :(

Thanks,
Danny

Oh I understand - the Linux numbers aren’t there…

(yet!!!) :)

Very cool. It’s awesome that ABC offers this great service for free. Now I just need the new season of Lost to start to take advantage of this. Bronx is Burning in SD will have to do for now :-).

Any intention of this becoming available in other parts of the world (like Canada?)

I tried this player out for the first time this weekend. It’s pretty impressive Danny. It’s especially nice with my fiber connection here at work :D

Linux please. Thank you.

My wife wants Lost. She doesn’t care why you don’t support Linux. WTF? Thanks for supporting choice.

I’ll just tell her ABC doesn’t want her as a customer / viewer.

No linux support means I’ll be going to bittorrent for these episodes. I’d much rather support ABC but you guys leave me no choice.
